It is often associated with the Moabite Stone, an archaeological artifact that provides insight into the history and culture of Moab. Dibon was a significant city in Moab, mentioned in other biblical passages such as <a href="/numbers/21-30.htm">Numbers 21:30</a> and <a href="/isaiah/15-2.htm">Isaiah 15:2</a>. The city was known for its high places, which were centers of idol worship, a practice condemned by the prophets. The judgment pronounced upon Dibon reflects God's disapproval of idolatry and the moral decline of Moab.<p><b>Nebo</b><br>Nebo was another city in Moab, distinct from Mount Nebo, where Moses viewed the Promised Land. This city was also a center of idol worship, particularly associated with the god Chemosh. The mention of Nebo in this context highlights the pervasive idolatry in Moab. The city's destruction is part of the broader judgment against Moab, as seen in <a href="/isaiah/15.htm">Isaiah 15 and 16</a>. The judgment serves as a warning against the consequences of turning away from the true God.<p><b>and Beth-diblathaim</b><br>Beth-diblathaim, meaning "house of fig cakes," was a town in Moab. Its mention here underscores the comprehensive nature of the judgment against Moab, affecting even smaller settlements. The name suggests a place of agricultural abundance, which would have been a source of pride and sustenance for its inhabitants. The judgment upon Beth-diblathaim symbolizes the loss of prosperity and security when a nation turns away from God. This theme is echoed in other prophetic writings, such as <a href="/amos/4-6.htm">Amos 4:6-9</a>, where agricultural failure is a sign of divine judgment.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/dibon.htm">Dibon</a></b><br>An ancient city located in Moab, east of the Jordan River.
